A New Project

I'm bored. I have the pinwheel wallhanging to finish but I need to get to my LQS to get the white fabric for the second border (yes, I made up my mind) and I was going to do table runners for Mother's Day gifts for Amelia to give to the grandmas but I'm not feeling it. I have them pieced together and I have the backing and binding for them... bah. I'll save them for their birthdays in August.

So I decided to make this for myself...

using this....

but you know what? I DON'T like the charm pack. I don't know. I don't like the yellow-ness undertone in all the squares. I've been arranging and re-arranging my charm squares to find the "pattern" I would like in my tote and I'm not feeling it. Sooooo, I'm going to go back to the drawing board and figure out another charm pack to use. Because I do want to make the tote. Just not with this fabric line. Maybe I'll use Oh-Cherry-Oh. I REALLY like that one. I want a tote for the summer. Something happy.

That's all I got.

  2. I like that tote. I think it will look great in whatever fabric you choose.

  3. why not use this pack and piece the lining and pockets...... and use something else for the outside.

    I love this pattern; I think I've made three of them.

    Hugs!
